[Robert Garry] Alina responding to the bamboo rat npr article: [shared file(s): image.png] [2021-03-15 19:49:48] [Robert Garry] Sorry Alina those samples had too much virus to be from casual shopper and they found the virus on a grate under Eddie's raccoon dogs. I don't think you can snark away those facts. [2021-03-15 19:56:19] [Eddie Holmes] Beautifully set-up! [2021-03-16 04:43:16] [Robert Garry] Alina has apparently stepped down from her self-appointed positions as detective, virus sequence integrity protector, whistleblower and truth teller about virologists. Timing seems peculiar.

[2021-03-16 12:34:02] [Eddie Holmes] Fascinating that Alina is stepping down from saving us. But if she thinks she can step away without any consequences she's mistaken. Same for a number of people. Next week for WHO then. [2021-03-16 13:30:09] [Eddie Holmes] I've think we've all been there [shared file(s): Image from iOS.jpg] [2021-03-16 13:32:21] [Kristian Andersen] Hahaha! I can, however, confirm that I have _not_ been there. Just FYI. [2021-03-16 13:35:36] [Eddie Holmes] My toaster even has a setting called 'a little bit more'. I can't believe I've been using it wrong all these years [2021-03-16 13:43:03] [Kristian Andersen] ... I have the same toaster... I will now look at that button differently. [2021-03-16 13:52:29]
